Understanding Your Professional Strengths and Challenges
The very strengths that make you a successful leader—such as managing extreme stress and taking risks—can also hinder your recovery from addiction. In high-pressure industries dedicated to serving, caring for, and inspiring others, professionals often face long hours, heavy workloads, and significant stress, which can lead to the use of drugs or alcohol to cope.
Challenges to recovery for professionals may include:
- Easy access to prescription medications, including narcotics
- Excessive work hours impacting self-care and work/life balance
- A workplace culture where alcohol and drug use are normalized
- Unique trauma and stressors specific to your occupation
